This PCB design is notorious for overheating even though temps appear to be under 60C in MSI afterburner and wattman (core and memory hotspots can reach 80+) which leads to artifacting. I have purchased 6 of these cards with every single one performing subpar to the reference model in every single way possible . Every single card will leak some sort of grease/oil from the thermal pads & copper block in the back plate after a few weeks of usage. This can lead to shorting of the caps near the PCI-E slot. I have had nothing but issues with this vega model. I had 2 cards constantly crash under stock working conditions on multiple games. I also had 3 out of the 6 cards come with broken 8 pin connetor walls (didn't even bother dealing with RMA since it was so many cards). I have never had problems this obvious to a given model design in the past. Read full review

First, I have to say, after flash the latest f5 56 bios and bump up the fan to 100% percent, this card is still pretty hot! over 70℃. there is probably something wrong with the heatsink design. but it wont crash with the new bios and works amazing. but... anyway, a saphirre might be a better choice.

Used for over a year without problems. Then started to spin fans and not seen in BIOS. After doing some troubleshooting, I was sure it was the card. Luckily, Gigabyte has an awesome 3 year warranty, sent it in and got it repaired
